We received the official word today that our travel plans will be delayed by two weeks. This may seem like a bummer, but I am really praising God through this.
*Praise God that this is ONLY a two week delay.
*Praise God that we found out BEFORE we departed, as some families travelled to Ethiopia and then got the news from the Embassy that they had to wait two weeks causing them to either return home and then fly back or stay in Ethiopia for an extra two weeks.
*Praise God that tickets were still available on all the flights we needed.
*Praise God that we are comforted in knowing that Olivia is in God's hands.
*Praise God that we are trusting His timing over our own and know that He has a purpose in this minor delay.
*Praise God for the peace that only HE could give me, as He knows I am a planner by His design!
*We're also still praising God that we are only required to travel ONE time to Ethiopia, as all of the families being matched with children now are required to make TWO trips.
We are still waiting to find out from our travel agent how much it will cost to change our tickets, but again we're trusting in God to provide for this additional expense.
Thank you for your prayers and your encouraging words.
